The Life-Changing Benefits of LASIK

How different would your life be if you could ditch your glasses?

LASIK eye surgery is giving people the chance to experience what it feels like to really be free from glasses. Whether you’re nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, LASIK may be your best option for limitless vision.

The Technology Behind Life-Changing LASIK

At the LASIK Institute at Illinois Eye Center, we use cutting-edge equipment and tools to perform Refractive surgery on our patients. The WaveLight® Refractive Suite includes a system of two innovative lasers that allow us to employ a completely blade-free, vision correction technique. This way, we can deliver rapid, precise treatment options customized to the unique needs and anatomy of the given patient. 

Can LASIK Change Your Life?

You may be a good candidate for LASIK eye surgery if:

  • You are at least 18 years old
  • You require corrective lenses (glasses or contacts)
  • You have otherwise healthy eyes and a relatively stable prescription (no changes for at least a year)
  • You are free from certain immunodeficiencies and autoimmune, collagen, and vascular diseases
  • You are not currently pregnant or nursing

A Few Fun LASIK Facts

Do you feel that LASIK isn’t an option for you? You may be surprised to find out that:

  • It’s more affordable than you think. Pay for LASIK now, and you’ll save more in the long run by eliminating the ongoing costs of frames, contacts, cases, and other accessories. Plus, we offer 0% financing.
  • Downtime is minimal. With LASIK, you’ll be back to your normal routine within a few days. (Of course, always get your doctor’s okay before forging ahead.)
  • It may be surgery, but it doesn’t hurt. Thanks to anesthetic eye drops and the skilled hands of our incredible LASIK surgeons, you shouldn’t have discomfort beyond some occasional light “pressure” during the procedure.
